Bio

I’m a Ph.D. candidate at SUNY ESF studying forest carbon mapping and monitoring under Dr. Colin Beier. My work focuses on methods for leveraging open data to produce maps of forest structure at local scales relevant to management. I have an extensive background in programming and computer science, and have been learning to couple these skills with statistical inference and machine learning techniques to produce landscape-level insights. I enjoy the challenges that come with wrangling all kinds of spatial data using R and python.
